Troubleshooting CallPilot

This chapter describes problems that can occur when you operate CallPilot, and possible solutions.

The Automated Attendant does not answer calls

•Verify that you have assigned lines to the Greeting Table.

•All the channels can be busy. Try calling back. Your call is answered when a channel is available.

•If the channels are frequently busy, it indicates there is too much activity. Contact your advice line or sales representative.

CLID information is lost or CLID routing is not routing calls

Make sure that the Automated Attendant is set to answer after two or more rings. If you use analog lines, CLID information is not available until after the second ring. For information about setting the number of rings, refer to “Configuring line answering” on page 49.

The Automated Attendant transfers some callers to the General Delivery Mailbox

The system requires a tone dial telephone signal and a minimum voice level. The system waits for a caller to respond. If a response is not received, the call transfers to the receptionist or designated Operator. If they are not available, the call transfers to the General Delivery Mailbox. Calls also transfer to the General Delivery Mailbox if an extension does not have a mailbox.

For the system to transfer calls correctly, each mailbox must have a unique extension number. To verify that mailboxes have a unique extension number, print the Directory Report. You can print reports using CallPilot Manager. For more information refer to the CallPilot Manager Set Up and Operation Guide.

Greetings play at the wrong time of day

There are four possible causes for this problem:

1The Business Status is not set to open. Refer to “Setting the Business Status” on page 94 for information.

2The wrong greeting numbers are assigned to the Greeting Table.

3The business hours are set incorrectly.

4The system time and date are incorrect for your telephone system.

Greetings play on the wrong line

Verify that your lines are assigned correctly. If you find the information is incorrect, you must reassign lines to the Greeting Table. Refer to “Configuring line answering” on page 49.
